Extraordinary photography, a deep story.

I started watching The Forbidden Flower because of the mixed opinions I'd read about it. Some people said it wasn't a particularly deep drama, that the characters were flat, but that the cinematography was stunning. And I have to say, the cinematography, the use of colors, the framing, and the way light and shadows are used... it's a work of art.
As for the story itself, I actually think it's very solid. There isn't a clear-cut "good" or "bad" character; instead, everyone is morally nuanced and flawed in their own way. What I appreciated most about the majority of the characters is that, when faced with hardship or someone who is suffering, they put aside their disagreements and stand by that person. In this case, that person is He Ran.
At first, I couldn't stand He Ran's mother. I thought she was overly controlling and overprotective of her daughter. But as the story progressed, I realized there were much deeper reasons behind her behavior. She had already lost her husband to the very same illness that now threatens her daughter. It's only natural that she wants to protect the precious child she brought into the world—the living reminder of the love she shared with her late husband. And it is totally legit that she let herself go, with eating and drinking, that's a big weight on her heart! And it is fair to open to new relationships, as well.
I also loved Han Yu and her uncle. As much as Han Yu loved and cared about He Ran, she let her go to Xiao Han because she knew it was what He Ran truly wanted: to experience her first—and perhaps last—great love. The line that stayed with me the most was something He Ran's uncle said, along the lines of, "I never said what you were doing was wrong."
I can also understand He Ran's decision not to tell Xiao Han about her illness. She wanted to experience a carefree kind of love, free from pity or the weight of her condition. But, as we know, life had other plans for her.
The only character who left me a little conflicted was Xiao Han. He does his job as a "lover," but he often seemed lost, as if he had no real purpose in life—until he found one in He Ran. We don't learn much about his past, but I think that was probably a deliberate choice by the writers. The drama's message is to live in the present instead of dwelling on the past, something we also see reflected in He Ran's bright, curious, bubbly personality.
Also loved the music!

Good Second Season.

I very much liked seeing Toma open up, set goals, and strive to achieve them. I don't know if I just haven't read/watched shows that switched up like this before (the first season focused on 1 main character, the second on the other), but it felt unique and fresh. I was a bit worried about how the story would progress, so it was a nice switch up/surprise. I liked the progression of their relationship and the ending was really well done.

However, I still have similar problems to those in the first season; Mamiya is just too trusting. Also, didn't like the new guy BA much as a character; for a while, I was honestly just suspicious of him. I was given the impression that Sahashi gets really jealous and possessive in this season, so I was excited because I wanted to see more of his yandere side... but none of that was true? Overall, I think the show should've been a bit darker, and Mamiya being a kind of "blushing virgin" throughout the entire show got quite frustrating.

Coming here after watching Ancient Love Poetry and I'm disappointed. I love Tian Qi and Yue Mi, they're such a fun god and goddess, but here they don't even have similar personality except for their power of Purple Moon and Moon & Stars. I know it's supposed to be stand alone spin-off but i just hope they still retain some of Tian Qi & Yue Mi's lore.

Talking about the drama itself, I love the power theme of moon & stars and the color scheme of purple & blue. There's some plot holes and ridiculous plot armor power up. I also dislike the problem solving or how they rushed the ending. Almost everyone died, Jing Yuan just die like that idk why he even comes back. Idk why Bai Shuo is suddenly on that island and Fan Yue got resurrected just because?

Stop casting 17-year-olds and 18-year-olds in romance dramas.

✅The Casting Problem Nobody Wants to Talk About.

For some reason, CDrama writers or whoever is in charge of casting keep getting it wrong. Not everyone is going to enjoy a romance between an 18-year-old and a 29-year-old. It's very weird, and honestly, that is the biggest turn-off for many people.

At the time of filming, the female lead (Ai Mi) was only 17 years old ​. I assumed it was shot last year. Yes, the age of consent in China is 14, but that doesn't make it any less uncomfortable to watch. The industry needs to do better. If they're going to cast 17 or 18-year-olds Female Leads in romantic leads, they should also cast 19 to 20-year-old male leads. That way, the dynamic feels much more appropriate and less jarring.

The 11-year age gap isn't just a number it shows on screen. She looks like a little girl next to him, and the chemistry simply doesn't land because of it . This is Ai Mi's first leading role, and while she shows promise, pairing her with someone over a decade older in a romance drama is a disservice to both actors.

✅Entanglements That Exhaust Rather Than Intrigue

Secondly, the drama is weighed down by far too many entanglements. Apparently, before the female lead, the male lead already had two wives and a kid. I'm sure the whole backstory will be explained later, but it's exhausting sitting through it. Instead of building tension and investment, it just feels like unnecessary baggage piled onto an already problematic setup.

✅My Last comments on the drama

There are elements here that could work, The political scheme, The contract marriage trope, the warlord setting but the casting choice overshadows everything. Until the industry stops pairing barely-legal teenagers with nearly-30-year-old men in romantic leads, dramas like this will continue to cause controversy.

After so long, I decided to rewatch this movie again as much as I bemoan the absence of Jet Li as the titular Wong Feihung in this movie and the one after. But to be fair, though, I don't really blame Jet Li regarding his old issue with Tsui Hark... especially considering that he often gets hurt a lot during the earlier filming of the first three movies. So his concerns about how much he should be paid for his appearance did have some grounds, since Jet do try to give his best performance in every work he does, but all the many retakes can be taxing.

This movie follows not too long after the previous one, with the last Lion King competition concluded. And we even got a brief montage of the lion battle from the last movie with clever edits that showed Jet Li's scenes without really showing his face.

So, despite having returned the golden medal after winning the competition, another officer had gone to visit Poh Chi Lam to give back the medal to Feihung... as well as honouring his victory in the competition with a Dragon dance, which was almost ruined by Leung Foon, who thought the incoming dragon was yet another challenger. The new governor, Guan Shing Tao, soon informed Feihung that there would be yet another Lion King competition... this time against foreign teams. Meanwhile, there's another anti-foreigner group called the Red Lantern that started to kill any foreigner they encountered,

At first glance, this movie was almost exactly a repeat of the third movie, with the opponents for the competition coming from the eight-nation alliance, instead of the Taiping gangsters, with the bonus side story about the Red Lantern group... which was like the female version of the Red Lotus group from the second movie. Well, technically, the overall plot was pretty okay... once I set aside my personal bias about Jet Li. That said though, I really don't get the reasoning for the side romance with the 14th Aunt to be included. And I really can't get around the whole bit about Vincent Zhou's Feihung being somewhat bedazzled towards not only the 14th Aunt but also Lady Miao from the Red Lantern. Cos it made it appear as if this Feihung was slightly more of a womaniser (and easily distracted by pretty women) compared to Jet Li's Feihung. Aside from this bit... I don't really have that much of an issue with Vincent Zhou. And ugh, seeing 14th Aunt throwing herself towards Feihung at every possible chance can get annoying. Like yes, Siu Kwan told her sister to watch over Feihung for her while she's away... but I don't think she meant it like ... very close. And then there's also Lady Miao being drawn to Feihung... and this Feihung not really doing anything to discourage the affection felt somewhat out of character. And I don't get why 14th Aunt needs to be an almost exact clone of Siu Kwan? Why? I'm also voicing the same exact concern as that one student asking if their master was trying to hog all the sisters. Like it's fine if these two girls were shown to have a one-sided affection for Feihung, but to turn it like he also felt the pull made him feel out of character. Especially since in the first 3 movies, it took Jet Li's Wong Feihung a very long time to even admit that he liked Siu Kwan.

There were also quite a number of new villains in this movie, this time with the Germans as well as a few anti-Qing people... which is fine, I guess. Though I wished there were some mention of what happened to those Russians last time that tried to kill Eunuch Li, as well as the Taiping group. That said, since most of the other casts were more or less the same... at least I had other reasons to continue watching this movie. I mean, having Hung Yanyan still around as Ah Chat made me feel like there's still a trace of Jet Li's presence remaining, so I'm a bit okay about that.

Almost .....

I was looking for a film/series that's new and exciting.

Great actors, great acting, great premise ... that is why I rated it this as high as I did, but wow was it filmed in such a long-winded unnecessarily dull way.

I was frustrated watching this, surely people don’t act/react this way in situations like this?
There were no back stories, we didn't know the characters so were not able to feel the pain, frustration and vulnerability.
We did not know why or how the plot was happening.
I prefer to watch shows where people show intelligence, so it is more fulfilling to watch. I fast forwarded through most of it. So much potential ... sadly, did not deliver.

The Most Tormented, Desolated Soul: A Mission for Justice & Revenge by the Woman Who Braved It All.

"The nation, including the people, is never an empire owned by one person. To blame oneself and one's kin is all for the sake of being blameless before the world." - Emperor Xuan (Mo Yan Qi)

Right from the outset of this review, I want to declare that I experienced little to no worry or frustration while watching this drama. In fact, I was deeply captivated and swayed by how the narrative was delivered in a solemn, yet excruciatingly heart-wrenching manner. Truly a job well done.

From the beginning up to the three-quarters mark of the drama, the narrative delivered nothing but an inspirational and captivating story—one that tenderly cradles while simultaneously veiling the evocative, passionate, yet devastating elements of the plot. If I were to compare it to an object, it would be a jigsaw puzzle—a mysterious one that holds and conceals an underlying depth despite its seemingly light and entertaining appearance. Watching this show felt like an interactive activity of patiently collecting a single puzzle piece each episode until you can finally assemble all the fragments to see its full glory and discover the earth-shattering secret it has been ostensibly hiding all this time. It was a narrative where the plot was shallowly concealed by its craftsmen deliberately, as if they never genuinely wanted to hide its secrets at all, leaving them right out in the open, waiting for the audience's curiosity and foresight to figure everything out. That is why by episode 5, I already had a clear idea of the direction they were steering this emotional story toward, and even before reaching the halfway point, I had already perceived what the whole picture might actually look like—one so grim, saddening, and devastating that I knew for sure it would render me completely speechless with a heavy heart. A prediction that turned out to be entirely accurate. 😭

For the record, although the pattern of the main plot may seem to follow a formulaic structure—one so well-worn you can already predict what's going to happen—to me, it was more of the writers' leniency and consideration toward the viewers. It's like they never really intended to make this a heavy drama to start with. So as to lessen the impact and prevent us from being utterly devastated once the mysteries are finally unfolded, they instead deliberately left obvious clues early on to make things easier for us and to maintain its fun and entertaining vibe.

Sadly, in spite of its highly compelling run, the drama still suffered an unexpected low point—a hiccup around the final quarter of the story that spoiled the otherwise smooth and almost perfect momentum of the show. What bothered me, though, is that this misstep could have easily been avoided if the writers had wanted to, since the logical groundwork for the conflicts had already been aligned and laid out beforehand. Therefore, I was truly dumbfounded that they still pushed through with the whole divorce plotline when it was entirely unnecessary. It felt like a blatant plot contrivance, manufactured solely to engineer the friction needed to expose a specific outcome—the truth behind the disastrous incident at Lishan Academy. It became apparent that the writers wanted to reveal this truth all along but either missed the opportune moment or were simply uncertain of where it logically fit. Unfortunately, this narrative miscalculation undeniably disrupted the story's seamless run for me.

Looking at it from another perspective, what I appreciated most about this misstep was that the narrative didn't linger too much on it. Instead, they moved on almost immediately in the subsequent episode, resolving the conflict to finally stage the outcome they had so desperately wanted to reveal all along. This perfectly illustrates the "missed timing/plot uncertainty" I noted above; because the whole divorce plotline lacked the structural weight of a major conflict, it functioned merely as an instrument to pave the way for their long-awaited tragic revelation.

Conversely, the story's climax and conclusion were otherwise executed very well. It was deeply satisfying to witness how Feng Zhiyao successfully avenged Princess Lingyun, and how Ye Ying was finally reunited with her husband, Prince Li—only to be slapped with the harsh reality that his ambitions far outweighed their relationship, which shortly concluded in a complete tragedy as Prince Li was defeated and ultimately faced his inevitable downfall. Above all, what really stood out was the Empress Dowager's well-deserved utter demise. She was rebuked by her own son, stripped of her posthumous titles, and buried simply as a commoner, with all her abominable misdeeds exposed to the world to serve as justice for the unimaginable atrocities she committed.

If there is anything I want to express my dissatisfaction with, it would be Ye Li's duel with Mo Jingli. The execution, dialogue, and emotions infused into their fight scenes were nicely done. However, it was totally disappointing to see Ye Li getting floored by him when all this time her character was built up as someone who possesses formidable martial arts skills—which she learned from her renowned Master Zhu. For me, this is the most significant missed opportunity of the show. Her skills received immense hype but were ultimately proven to be useless and decent at best, as they were technically hidden—except for a couple of scenes where she was in a dire situation—until her duel with Mo Jingli. Honestly, it could have been a game-changer and a huge mood booster if they had only allowed her to fight alongside Mo Xiuyao. Instead, they kept her detained in the palace as a hostage. I am not saying it is a bad decision, as it completely aligns with the dramatic tension of the plot; it is just that I have been craving to witness her battle prowess for a long time, only to be provided with palace intrigue that, presumably, no one really wanted. In the end, I can genuinely say that her martial arts prowess was overhyped for nothing.

"The wise mend their deficiencies, while the foolish offer others their weaknesses." - Empress Dowager (Guo Jin)

Finally, for my closing statements, let me just dedicate some words of admiration to our female lead, Ye Li.

One key feature I incredibly admire about this drama is Ye Li's tenacity, perseverance, and determination to seek revenge, uphold justice, and demand retribution from the people who brought harm to Lishan Academy, at the same time diligently repaying their debt of gratitude to all the people, significant or not, who extended a helping hand when they needed it most. I deeply appreciate that her purpose was not entirely fixated on revenge, but also on returning the kindness they received, regardless of how big or small it is. She stands as the ultimate embodiment of the deceased and the living proof of Lishan Academy's existence.

I literally binge-watched the first three-quarters of the show without blinking an eye—aside from the several instances where I had to wipe away tears that unconsciously slipped through. It was a thoroughly emotional journey of endurance and painstaking effort to exact a delicately cultivated revenge. What made it more agonizing though was the fact that Ye Li suffered unimaginable grief and anguish in desolation, until she eventually developed bereavement psychosis—a trauma-induced, deceptive coping mechanism rooted in severe denial and dissociation, a condition that preserves one's sanity and life itself from an unbearable reality by creating an illusory bubble where everything remains the same as if nothing has changed, which was triggered by going through an agony so intense it led to self-exhaustion, leaving a sharp, world-shattering impact deep within her.

All that said, it breaks my heart to smithereens how she still managed to become a literal sun—irradiating the dark and gloomy lives of those around her, especially her husband, Mo Xiuyao, and the residents of the Prince Ding mansion—despite being engulfed in complete darkness herself. It is astonishing how she illuminated and bestowed blinding light upon the people around her, vitalizing them and bringing hope to their dreary lives while she, on the other hand, was being enveloped and consumed by loneliness inside. She is the very figure who raised the family up from its devastating ruins and mended its foundation to make it strong and whole again. Consequently, watching the plot unfold little by little made me slowly sink into great misery myself. She is the kind of character I want to envelop in my tight and warm embrace while gently patting her on the back for bearing through it all, knowing just how exhausting and excruciating it had been all along.

"Mo Xiuyao, don't let your life become a show in their eyes." - Ye Li

Story - 9.5, This could have been an easy 10 if not for the contrived divorce plot they reinforced to save their asses for their seeming lack of discernment on when the best timing was to unveil the biggest revelation of the story—Lishan Academy's demise. Although it wasn't highly dramatized, it still remains the biggest factor that disrupted my seamless emotional experience watching this show. Aside from that, I tremendously enjoyed this story. I was highly entertained by how Ye Li was orchestrating her own revenge schemes behind Mo Xiuyao. She played him big time there. Hahaha!

Acting/Cast - 9.5, I undeniably adore both of our main leads, but Bai Lu's masterful portrayal of her character—by properly conveying every emotion and how strongly it was received by the viewers—stood out the best to me. Watching Cheng Lei, on the other hand, reminded me of another drama (Scent of Time), specifically during his irritated, enraged, and beaming scenes. For some reason, while watching his portrayal, I unconsciously became so fixated and overly discerning of his facial expressions that I started getting bothered and weirded out by how different and unnatural they were from his usually calm, stoic, and dangerous demeanor, to the point that I started thinking of another actor (Wang Xingyue) while watching him, imagining that the character would fit him better... I am so sorry, Cheng Lei! In conclusion, I realized that he needs improvement for roles that require a wide variety of overly animated expressions. Other than that, I love that both of their characters are mature and adaptable, given how their conflicts are getting resolved shortly within the same episode—majority of the time thanks to Ye Li. Therefore, I want to give extra credit to her, as she practically carried 80% of the conflicts and emotional aspects of this show on her back.

Music - 10, Each track is individually remarkable, but when infused with the drama's sequences, their value immediately skyrocketed beyond expectations. They accompanied every scene they were played in very well, enhancing and bringing forth even more of the emotions hidden deep within. My top favorites are: 吻合 (In Harmony), 爱，不止如此 (Love is More Than This), 来日方长 (There's Plenty of Time Ahead), and lastly—I know it's weird—but I was overly captivated by the Sutra chanting part in the song 心世界 (World of the Heart).

Rewatch Value - 9.5, This is a drama I wouldn't mind watching again despite the plot contrivance I mentioned above. Thank heavens the writers didn't treat it as a major plot device; if it had turned out to be a major conflict, my perspective would certainly not be as light and calm as it is right now.

Overall - 9.5, Personally, I can say that this is close to a solid narrative, with the exception of the forced divorce plot. Therefore, I cannot understand the "hate train" of the viewers' dissatisfied reviews posted on MDL for this drama. The emotions were delivered perfectly, and so was the story, so, why???

IF you find my review helpful please let me know.

I had low expectations despite being a fan…

I went into this with pretty LOW expectations, even though I'm an HMH fan. I think the trailers just didn't do much for me, even though I was looking forward to his action scenes. So imagine my surprise when I finally watched the first episode... I was like, WOW. That has to be the best opening episodes I've ever seen in a chinese drama. I wanted to cry because it was so good. And somehow, it just kept getting better and better.

💯 Balance between romance and plot
💯Fluid action scenes
💯High tension and suspense every episode
💯Political intrigue (war) feels more integrated
💯Strong character development
💯A pure romance that develops gradually through shared missions, trust, and political alliances
💯The political intrigue remains the central focus of the story rather than romance taking over
💯Misunderstandings don’t last long
💯A couple that is pure, supportive, understanding, and respectful of each other. A young romance that doesn’t need kissing scenes to feel real.



The OST deserves a special mention. The ending scene's music felt so nostalgic yet magical at the same time—it reminded me of Narnia with a hint of c-drama vibes, and I absolutely ate it up. The intro is the perfect battle song. Reminds of an anime! The acting, chemistry, and plot were all incredible. Hmh action is also very fluid as expected! I loved him as Wang Ye, and now Wuyi! He looks so natural here too, not too much foundation, so I appreciate it so much. And Aimi’s acting is so good for her age. Oh Aimi the expressive actress that you are. I hope she wins an award for her acting here! The angst and comedy are perfectly balanced. And the tropes?! Arranged marriage, falling for your best friend's girlfriend, unrequited love, friend zone, enemies to friends to lovers—AHHH. This drama is feeding my soul.

I honestly thought I'd only be watching because I'm an HMH fan... but now I'm a fan of the entire cast and of course the story/script. The last hmh drama that I really really liked was litc, but for that one, the script was actually just okay. It wasn’t the best. What drew me in more was the acting and the visual and the angst. But for litc, I fast forwarded most of the second leads 😅For kttph, everything drew me in. Every episode ended with me desperate for the next one. There wasn't a single boring episode—even the side characters' scenes felt important. No fast forward. Blink and you'll probably miss something. Overall… This completely exceeded every expectation I had. And it’s not even over yet. I hope it only gets better from here.

Chemistry like no other

just finished ep 12...

tbh i didn't know what I was getting myself into because I didn't watch the trailer or read the synopsis. i love going blindly into a series.

if im being honest I didn't have much expectations but I got hooked right from the ep 1. I really loved Thun and Keen's dynamics, chemistry, dressing room s*x, their relationship and their journey.

they didn't get along right from the start. it took them a couple of episodes to fully understand each other but once they did they were inseparable. I loved every bit of them being together

the storyline was also amazing. i loved all the twists and turns. some plot twists were obvious and I predicted but some i didn't see coming.

I think this series had everything that I wanted and it was very entertaining. I loved the boxing scenes. they were well choreographed. all the other actors did an amazing job too.

I liked 2nd couple too and I loved that they both always trusted each other and stood for and with each other. the 3rd couple... i mean more like hinted couple, our girls. I really liked them too. i wish we had some sort of confirmation or them maybe go on a first day but it's OK in my heart they will eventually get together 🤭🤭

which reminds me the OK necklaces were so cute and the plushie too.

I would love to see gunner and nice again in another bl someday. I loved their chemistry together and their phenomenal acting 🫶🫶🫶

Different Strokes for Different Folks!

I've watched both Korean & Japanese versions of this dramas. Well, I've watched both, kind of. I finished this version and I dropped the Korean version maybe around episode 8 or 9. I honestly can't remember. Moral of the story - it's all based on personal preference. Whatever you prefer in your Asian dramas will determine which of these versions you're going to connect with and enjoy more. There is no right or wrong answer here truly.

Personally, I dropped the Korean version because I couldn't connect with the female lead whereas I know some reviewers preferred the Korean version over this one because they felt that the FL in the Korean version had more of a backbone and more spunk, if you will. Honestly, I disagree with that notion. I feel both leads had the same amount of backbone in the beginning honestly. Neither one of them were particularly assertive after traveling back to the past, if I'm being wholly honest here. I know that's what most people expect from these types of dramas and I've essentially accepted that these dramas will never truly write a FL who immediately shows her own personal growth and anger like we would like. We expect more fire from these leads and we never get that. There's usually two extremes with revenge dramas (which is why I'm generally not too fond of them) - either they're like this drama where there's still a little too much timidity and fear from FL OR the FL goes full-on psychopath and it's dark before the end of the first episode. There's never a true happy medium in these dramas, which there should be but I digress.

So anyway, this drama felt more dark while also having more of a heart. The OG version lacked heart. K-Dramas, generally speaking, are notorious for being melodramatic. K-Dramas have a tendency to read like telenovelas/soap operas sometimes. So while the characters are technically messy on paper and in practice, it comes off as more of a caricature than an honest depiction of human beings. The inherent darkness and rawness often found in J-Dramas worked for this series. The grit we saw made it easier to see these characters as three-dimensional beings. They seemed human in that way and I think that's what I feel was missing from the Korean version.

Also, the ML in the K-Drama was completely lost on the canvas. I barely remember anything about him and he made little to no impression on me. However, the ML in this drama was definitely felt. I've seen this actor in another J-Drama that I love and he essentially played a variation of that character in this drama, as well. The tsundere, stone-faced type. Despite that, I did feel more of an emotional connection with him. I felt his presence; he was very much so represented throughout the narrative. His presence was there even when he wasn't on-screen. The antagonist felt human to me, as well. She was objectively awful but we know how she became that way. We hated Reina but there was some realism to her.

Last but certainly not least, the K-Drama's pacing was SLOWWWWW. The episode count is longer so I guess that's to be expected but that leads to certain arcs being drawn out more than they should and certain arcs being forced into the narrative to fill up the rest of the drama's runtime. This version doesn't have that issue. It's shorter so every episode contributes to the main plot and nothing seems to be filler, to me. Nothing was wasted in that sense, especially your time. They immediately placed us into the meat & potatoes of the story and you didn't have to wait for the show to hit its sweet spot, so to speak. The sweet spot started from episode 1.

Would I recommend this? Yes! It's not too long and it's incredibly enjoyable. Would I rewatch it? Sure, I can definitely see myself rewatching this one if I desired.

Literally amazing/Littéralement incroyable

English:
I just watched this show all in one sitting (which isn't hard to do since it's only 8 episodes, 15 minutes each), and I loved it. I love the idea/concept of it, I love the cast, and basically the entire thing. First off, the acting in this was spectacular. I think that every actor in this show is amazing, especially Lee Seung Gyu (Shin Ki Tae in the show). The way he portrayed emotions was amazing; it even made me emotional. Sometimes when I watch romance K-Dramas, there isn't any chemistry between the leads, but in this show? I see chemistry, I see love, I see admiration. Secondly, I loved the pacing. Even though this is an extremely short show, the show didn't really seem rushed at all, which I enjoyed (I hate when shows drag on plot points and the show overall). Also, I loved how there were just the right amount of cute scenes between the two leads, as well as emotional scenes. I don't want to write any spoilers, so just watch the show! Overall, I think this is my favourite BL. It's amazing, the cast, the acting, the plot, overall perfect. I will 100% rewatch this at some point.

Français:
Je viens de regarder cette série d'une seule traite (ce qui n'est pas difficile étant donné qu'il n'y a que 8 épisodes de 15 minutes chacun), et j'ai adoré. J'adore l'idée/le concept, j'adore le casting, et en fait toute la série. Tout d'abord, le jeu d'acteur était spectaculaire. Je pense que chaque acteur de cette série est incroyable, en particulier Lee Seung Gyu (Shin Ki Tae dans la série). La façon dont il a exprimé les émotions était incroyable ; ça m'a même émue. Parfois, quand je regarde des K-Dramas romantiques, il n'y a pas de chimie entre les personnages principaux, mais dans cette série ? Je vois la chimie, je vois l'amour, je vois l'admiration. Ensuite, j'ai adoré le rythme. Même si c'est une série très courte, elle ne semblait pas du tout précipitée, ce que j'ai apprécié (je déteste quand les séries s'étirent sur certains points de l'intrigue et sur la série en général). De plus, j'ai adoré qu'il y ait juste le bon nombre de scènes mignonnes entre les deux personnages principaux, ainsi que des scènes émouvantes. Je ne veux pas spoiler, donc regardez simplement la série ! Dans l'ensemble, je pense que c'est mon BL préféré. C'est incroyable, le casting, le jeu d'acteur, l'intrigue, en général, parfait. Je vais le revoir à 100% à un moment donné.
